3rd gen front brakes not working?

EDIT: I got the tool and pulled fluid through the lines and now they're working Well i have to get all my wiring cleaned up then i can do a road test, but they seem to be working pretty good right now

 

Have you bled your brakes?

 

Sounds like you have air in your lines. Did you drain any of the old fluid out before adding new fluid?

i tried bleeding them but no fluid came out. And i was pretty sure all the old fluid was out before..how would i drain the fluid out to make sure?

 

I believe you are overyourhead. Try looking up some how to flush and bleed brakes videos on you tube for motorcycles. There has to be a bunch of them . It sounds to me like you have never done it before. Look up some how to videos and if you have any questions I would be glad to answer them. It would be harder to explain how to do it than to actually flush and bleed brakes

 

You need to use a vacuum type device to pull the new fluid through the lines. Keep the master cylinder full of new fluid and attach the vacuum device via a clear hose to the bleed valve on the caliper. Open the valve by turning it counter clockwise with a small wrench while applying suction to the valve. Continue to pull the new fluid through until it is completely clear and close the bleeder valve when the new fluid does not contain any bubbles. You can buy a device to do this (MityVac) or make your own using some clear tubing and a large industrial sized syringe. I use a homemade bleed device that uses a jar with compression fitting to catch the old fluid and it attaches to my mini wet dry vac to provide the suction. As indicated already there are tons of detailed posts on how to do it if you just search.

Sometimes you must bleed the master cylinder first (at the banjo bolt) to have fluid pressure so you can bleed the whole system.
